Medium Risk NYC Grade: A

The Oasis Cafe has only two inspections on file, a thin record to work from. The latest inspection on file is from May 2, 2025. When a facility lands in medium risk territory, it usually means a mixed inspection result.

Things are looking better: the most recent inspection turned up four violations, compared to six violations previously.

When inspectors have written things up, anti-siphonage or back-flow prevention device not provided has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

Among Queens restaurants, this is a fairly standard result. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
